foodie fridays: bourbon pumpkin pie with cinnamon pecan streusel

Today, I made you a pie. Here’s the deal. Are you ready? What the frick. It is echo-y in the blog world today. Geesh.

I made you a pie, but not a full on pie-pie. I know I am going to get 2,398 stink eyes, mean mugs, and psshshhtssh’s, so I will throw it on out and see where this lands. I don’t like pie.

I know, I know, then why the flip did you make pie, Lauren? Gosh.

The truth, I realize there is a less than 1% group of us non-pie lovers out there in the world. So, to be fair, I knew deep down in my cake, brownie- loving heart that I needed to make y’all a pie. After all, Thanksgiving is like five minutes away. But wait. The deal. Remember the deal? Here’s the deal. Are you ready?

I made you a pie, but with store bought crust. Now, before you completely break up with me, this pie is like legit, legit because it has giggle juice in it. Bourbon and pumpkin are the batman and robin of Thanksgiving. Fighting to save our baked turkeys and keep pie cases spinning. But the pie also has a homemade filling filled with cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and topped with a pecan streusel.

So, the deal, when it’s comes to pie, I’ll meet you halfway. You bring the crust and I’ll bring the filling? Deal? Deal.
